Through years of flipping back and forth between paper and digital for idea capturing, I know I am into digital a lot more. But I absolutely love crossing off things on a list with a pencil or crumpling up a note when it is completed.

Woke up today thinking I need to cyborg my idea capturing system so that I can enjoy both digital and analog. So I took a ton of scrap paper and cut it all up into approximately business card size. All ideas will start on a scrap and then will get reviewed to see which ones will graduate to digital storage.

Pros

• Ideas incubate for a while
• Ideas get looked at at least twice
• Paper and pencils get used so i can get more paper and pencils
• Less digital clutter

Cons

• Extra steps capturing ideas
• Risk losing ideas that I might find useful not now but later
